An order was jssued last evening requir- g the policemen to report every hour in- stead of every two hours as heretofore, The motive of the change is as yer a conjectnre, but it should be something of importance, us it will work a hardship on the night patrol- men, as it will cut many a _comfortable nap squarely in two in the middle.

Preparing For Criminal Business in District Court—Robbed By a Room Mate—Plucked in the Tiger's Den—The Oty Council. The Coroner's Inquest. Tbe Inquest on the body of the victim of Sunday uight's tragedy was held yesterday at the undertaking rooms of Field & Estep. The {urors were William Robinson, George F. Smith and J. W. Crossland. The wit~ nesses examined were John Scheffler, who runs the saloon in the builaing adjoining the one in which the shooting occurred, Chief Lucas, Ofticers Kemp, Clough hnd Tamisea, James W. Wilson, Robort Stevenson and Louis Davis, Scheffler was in tho room when the murder was committed. Ihe mur- derer, Boartz, and two or three others were sitting around a table when Donohue came in. He asked all the men for a chew of to- bucco, and when ne came to Boartz some words passed between them. The witness was 100 tired and sleepy to notice just what was said. Donohue said something about smashing Boartz on the nose, and stepped toward him. Boartz drew a gun and the witness ran into the front room and had barely passed through the door when the shot was fired, Boartz told the witness Sun- duy that the Donohue boys tried to hold him up Saturday night and he would fix them if he ever got nold of them. Robert Stevenson, a companion of Don- ohue, was the only witness examined who saw the shooting. He, with the others, were with Donohue when the latter entered the place. The other two .went across the street and he did not go in until & minute or two after Dono- hue. When he opened the voor Boartz and Donohue were quarreling, and he could not et inside as Donohue was right in front of the door and Boartz just abead of him with arevolver, There were others in the room, but he could not tell who tk were, The revolver was pointed toward him and he tried to get out as the shot was fired, Dono- hue ran out and hid behind a barrel and Bo- urtz followed, looking for hun and asking where he had gone. ~ He pointed the gun at the witness. Donohue was standing with his side tewards Boartz, or with his body ut an anele. He did not kuow how the trouble originated. ‘L'he officers testified that Boartz evidently was not aware that he had killed Donohue, as he said he wished he nad killed the — He was found at his home and said he was not arunk and knew what he was doing. He suid he did the shooting; that he never pulled a gun unless he meant 1o shoot, and never shot unless he meant to kill. When Donohue started toward him, the latter saw him pull the gun, and said, “You’ve got your gun out, have you! Well, youwre a d—d coward and 'won't shoot, any- how. Ofiicer Tamisca testified that he met Boartz Sunday and the latter told tim that Donohue had tried to hold him up the pre- ceding evening, and showed a bandaged wrist as the result of the scuffle. He said he would fix them if he got his clutches on them, Ofticer Clough 1dentified the revolver as one taken from ‘Suspender Jack about two weeks ago, when he wus arrested for disturbing the peace. The other testimony amounted to very little. After bearing it all the jury ad- journed until after dinner, and to await the result of the post mortem, which was con- ducted by Drs. Waterman and Cleaver. The chest was opened, and it was found that the ball entered between the fourth and fifth ribs on the left side, just to the right of the left nipple, passed through the uppor por- tion of the heart, thence across to the other side and through the middle lobe of the ieft lung, out between the fifth and sixth ribs, and was found just under the skin, a little below the right” arm. The bullet was slit and badly battered out of shape, having struck the edge of the sternum us it entered the body, which had deflected its course somewhat. But for this fact it is possible that it might have missed the heart. What was supposed to be the location of the ball, near the spine, trans- pired to be a fatty tumor when it was opened. The stomach was distended, and it was found that the deceased had been drinking neavily of beer. ‘The report of the postmortem was sub- mitted to the coroner’s jury and a verdict was returned to the effect that the decénsed came to his death from a bullet from a pistol aimed and discharged by William Boartz with felonious ntent. The remains were removed to the family residence, 1220 Fifth avenue, late in the afternoon, and the funeral will take place from there at 10 o'clock this morning. The prisoner adheres to all his original statements regarding the shooting. He manifests much concern regarding his famly, He says he had to shoot to save from injury. He has secured the services of Myuaster, Lindt & Seabrook to defend him. It is stated that the preliminay examination will not be held for several duys. —_——— Now is the time to buy your furniwre. O.

This was the day set for beginniog the trial of cases on the criminal calondar, but the county atwrney was not ready to proceed with the prosecu- tion, and the jury wad excused until Thurs- day moroing. The iutervening time will be occupied with the hearing of equity cases and the arguments of motions and de- murrert 'he only case heard yesterday was that against Sheniff O'Neill, who charged by Attorney Boultoa wish contempt of court, for failing Lo serve a writ of ubate- ment against certain ealoon [property against which the attorney had obtained a decree by default. C. M. iHagle, esq., ap- peargd for the Wlefendant. ‘l‘hs position taken by the defeus> was thatthe writ could not be served without renderiog the sheriff liable for trespass, as there were several owners of the property and the decree was against but ove of them, They also main taived that the property was not so di iguated that it could be told what building was meant. Mr, Harle referred to the en- viable record made by the sheriff while in oftice, and tha fact that this wus the first that he was charged with neglect in serving papers. He stated that no attorney with a grain of common sense would have inst tuted any such proceedings, aud stated that Boulton was the only member of the bar, who would figure in such a case, Boulton again took the floor and renewed his demand that the sheriff should be pun- ished for contempt of court and removed from office for incompetency. Although the caso was deemed of very little importance, the other members of the bar arranged themselves in comfortable positions about the court room and remained until the argu- ments were subwitted, apparently enjoying Boulton's positioa hugely. This was the ouly case heard during the day, and at its couclusion the court arranged & few cases for hearing and an ‘adjournment was taken until this mornin Iu the case of State vs Peter Hausen, for the murder of Walter Madison, the defend- st filed a motion for & continuance.

Ay The Fool and His Money. A conple of blooded youths from the city on the other side of the Muddy creek cuta few ncisors at the Mint last evening. They indulged in the fascinating but fluctunting game of “stud” poker, and 80on had accumu- lated §250 worth of experience in playing the seductive game. They paid for it in good hard cash, but they were not satisfied, They went to the police station and entered a lusty, wigorous protest. They wanted the house pulled, they ‘‘wouldn’t kick @ minute if it was a straight game,’ etc., otc, but it was no use. Deputy Marshal White invited them to_ call this morning and file an information and possibly they will. Probably they will not. Such calls are getting “frequent, but tho police are not disposed to take the part of the deluded suckers who bite at the golden bait. The parties are old enough to know better than to try to get some- thing for nothing, and if they are bound to try it, they are left to abide by the consequences, However, thelmayor issued an order about a vear ago prohibiting all games of stud poker, hazard, etc., and it is wondered what has be- come of it. It was issued just before a spring election and it is thought that it is about time for it to be resurrected. e D To avoid the rush ladies and gentlemen are invitad to call as early as possible at .

Broadway. e A Great Show at Eiseman’s. Nothing o the holiday festivities thus far this season has attracted such wide spread atteution and created such immense enthusi- asm among the children as Eiseman’s series of Sauta Claus entertainments that began last evening in front of the great mercantile palace. Thousands of people, men, women and children blocked the street from the time the curtains wera drawn up in the thirty-foot show windows until the electric lights were turnea out at 10 o’clock. The shouts and screams of laughter from the delighted aud ience attracted crowds from adjoining streots, and at times the throng was 8o great the electric cars could scarcely crawl through. In the west window was & gigantic fac simile of the Brooklyn bridge, or a repesentation of the mext great bridge that s to span the river between Councit Bluffs and Omaha, Passing over the bridge was a splendid trades display composed of every conceiva- Dle device in mechanical and common toys. They were attached to & moving belt con- cealed by the sides of the bridge. The belt was drmven by a motor, and the display moved as an endless rocession ~ for home. There were ocomotives apparently drawing trains of gaily decorated cars; horses pulling floats Topresenting various trades and industries; fully equipped fire departments with en. gines and hook and ladder trucks; batrol wagons filled with poiicemen, band wagons with full brass bands, with the bass drummer following standing on his head on his drum pounding it with both hands and beating the cymbals with his heels, and the most Inconceivably grotesque figures from a billy gout %0 a clown elephant. ‘While this show was taking place Santa Clans, the real old man himself"in flesh and blood, was hoiding a levee in the other jm-~ mense window, and taking orders from all good children for Christmas presents. This was intensely exciting to the hittle ones, and thousands of little arms were stretched up to him in earnesi intensity. After showing himselt in the window and bowing his hearty recognition to the multitude of children he came to the door and received their orders for Christmas pres- ents, His capacious pockets and great pouch were quickly filled, and after an hour he re- tired to read them. Their perusal would af- ford splendid material for amew Dickeas. One lonely hittle boy tearfully wrote: “Dear Santa Claws: ple’s dif me back my little sister that dod woked away. Another bereaved little ono wanted a ladder, ‘‘a drait long ladaer to reach up to heaven, where mamma is.”” Another anxious little heart thought Sunta Claus could give her mno richer blessing than “'something nov bad to take that would cure brother's diphtheria.” Every possible toy that human ingenuity could con- trive or childish imagination conceive was ordered. Scorus of anxious little hearts, too timid and fearful to breathe in ordiuwry human ears their wants, scrawled their prayers on soiled bits of paper and put them 10 the generous hands of Santa Claus. Santa Claus will hold his reception at Eiseman’s every night this week, and he has authorized Tug BEE to say he will hunt up all good children and will see that they get whatever they order. Today he will walk and drive through the streets, and possibly may visit the schools looking for good boys and girls. He'sa jolly good fellow, and your Jriend. Coiwe down to Eiseman'’s tonight and every night this week and make his acquaintance.

CO., Prop's., Cleveland, O. — e AMUSEMENTS, Tt is her great versatility that makes Rosina Vokes such du entertaining, clever artist. Furthermore, she, unlike her sister, who was here two weeks ago, has sur- rounded hersglf with a company that does creditable and pleasing work. The opening performance at B3oy's opera house last night, in which the company presented a triple Dbill, was attended by one of the most fashionable audiences of the season. Miss Vokes appeared in **The Circus Rider” and ‘A Uouble Lesson,” the two characters as- sumed by her being wildly different, but played with equai force and effect. The part, however, in which she was seen to the very best advantage, was that of Lady Lu- cille Grafton in “The Circus Rider.” Her imitation of the renowned bare-back star, given on a sofa, won a tremendous round of applause. Courtney Thorpe, her leading man, was well remembered from last season and his first appearance on the stage last night was the signal for a Learty welcome. He is an actor whose style and manner easily win the sympathies of an audience, K'elix Morris is also desery- ing of special mention. Hig change from a decrepit, doting old man, in the firat piece, “‘A Game of Cards,” to u Scotch butler, in ‘A Double Lesson,” stamps him as one of the most intelligent portrayers of character that has been seen here in a long time. The balance of the company played their several parts in an acceptable manner, ————— UNDER A MISAPFREHENSION, Why the Higher Army Officers of Brazil Joined the Revolr.

Tasnoy, Dee. 9.—In conversation with Braziban adherents here today Dom Pedro expressed many doubts whether the new government will contribute to the prosperity of the country. Although he had. himself told very prominent persons that they should continue to serve the country, still he had not expected there would be 80 many deserters from the staudurd of monarchy.

For fifteen vears it was the only one in Boston or Y eiNew England, says the Boston Globe. At the end of that time the Church of the Messinh and the Church ofOur Saviour, at Longwood, instituted boy choirs, the one but six months later than the other. Agnin twelve years elapsed before another church™ (St. Ann’s) adopted the same form of render- ing the service, but within the last de- cade the value of this quality of music has been fully recognized, untit nearly all the Bpiscopal churches in the city have fallen into the beautiful and at- tractive line. The ordinary duration of a boy’s musical usefulness is five years, his voice becoming of value at about ten years of age and continuing until he is fifteen, although in some in- stances boys have sung uuntil they were nearly eighteen years of age; buv this hae been in the case of solo singers and because of special care and training.
